The competition is aimed at brokers and both intermediate and experienced investors and will run throughout the month of November, ending on December 1st.

Each contestant will be provided with an initial virtual stake of US $100,000 and unlimited access to City Credit Capital's unique City Trader platform.

Contestants will then be able to track and trade currencies in real time with the winner being the one showing the largest overall net profit for the month.

It will give all participants the opportunity to hone their trading skills on the financial markets using a leading edge 'no risk' demo account in a live environment - an invaluable experience.

"We're very excited about our new City Trader platform and wanted both brokers and investors to experience just how user-friendly it is" said Alfred Tang, the company's UK chief, "of course the trading demo isn't real, but the prize money certainly is".
